Consequently, despite the labels of 'psoitive' and 'negative', without knowing the content being labeled, we cannot actually make a sufficient judgement of the bias.

Although it is unknown just how negative or positive the stories in question were, there are known knowns and known unknowns, and possibly some unknown knowns, and one cannot be positive how many known negatives and unknown positives there are, that's for sure.
